Alcohol Outlawed in Springfield

After more carefully reviewing our town, Springfield, charter we suprisingly discovered these two laws, which had never been known before:

"...as chief constable, ye shall receive one pig every month and two comely lasses of virtue true."

and

"...spiritous beverages are hereby prohibited in Springfield under penalty of catapult."

Since the discovery of these two laws, prohibition was declared. Therefore, illegal alcohol consumption and police bribery skyrocketed to an embarassing level. We must preserve these laws in the name of our great founder, Jebediah Obadiah Zachariah Jenediah Springfield, who founded our great and noble town over 200 years ago in the year 1796. We ask for outside aid to maintain these alcoholic... uhh... demons.

Today, Mayor Joe Quimby was caught at the "Sleezy Motel" in eastern Springfield with three half-naked women. Eyewitness reports have stated that the mayor was intoxicated at the time...

This is no time to be laughing! As we speak, vile and wicked alcohol is continually being flooded into our great town! Our entire police force [Chief Clancy Wiggum, Eddy, Lou] has been greatly overwhelmed!

"'Embiggens'. I'd never heard that word before I came here."
"I don't know why, it's a perfectly cromulent word."

-Exchange between two Walmingtonian holiday makers visiting Springfield (of course they booked their holidays prior to the uncovering of the anti-alcohol law, or they should certainly not have considered the destination. Incidentally, Walmingtonian tourism to Springfield over the next month is down from a typical three, to zero advance bookings.)

No! Tell your citizens not to be discouraged from Springfield because of this prohibition law! There are plenty of other activities tourists may participate in! Look!

-See the world-famous Springfield Isotopes (hold the record for longest losing streak ever at 26 games!)

-Visit our Nuclear Power Plant!

-Krusty the Klown resides here! Yes, THE Krusty the Klown!

-Take a stroll down to The Leftorium for all your southpaw needs!

-Visit the First Church of Springfield and learn the miracle of shame!

-Android's Dungeon features Radioactive Man #1000 at an affordable price, only 25 dollars!

So you see, Springfield is a hell of a town! And please do not go to Shelbyville, they marry their cousins!

You fools! Hundreds of gallons of illegal liquor are being smuggled in by ruthless mobsters and you expect us to do something? As the international community, you are obligated to assist us in suppressing these felons!

-Crossing The State Border into Springfield through Shelbyville come thirty huge black trucks carrying precious Duff beer. Following are many black, tinted windowed cars apcked with armed menw aiting to "deal" with the interfering police.

After actually reading the rest of our town charter, we've discovered that the prohibtion law in Springfield was repealed exactly one year after it was put into effect. Thus, alcohol has once again been legalized in Springfield.

Within five minutes, hundreds of Springfieldians had gathered and alcohol had been flooded into the town legally. A plump man, bald as a cueball, stood before the crowd giving a short, blunt and inspiring speech to the people.

"To alcohol: the cause and solution to all of life's problems!"

This was followed by a roar of cheers and a drinkfest. Springfield's gross blood alcohol level reached its highest ever today... God bless liquor!

The nation of Crownguard warmly congratulates Springfield for its wise decision in allowing alcohol. We fully support you and send as a gesture of goodwill one "Get out of Jail Free" card to Mayor Quimby. We trust he will put it to good use.
